Kylah's first Easter Egg Hunt

Okay there is a lot of pictures but I couldn't help it they were so cute. Saturday we went to our church's Easter Egg Hunt. It was so nice out and the kids loved it.

A mid day snack for the girls......not candy, it was puffs for the tots.
My mom made Kylah and Kaitlyn coordinating outfits for the hunt. SO CUTE!!!

She has a hard time looking in the sun, but she won't wear sunglasses?

As you can see Addie has a dress in the same material but Summer made hers in a different pattern. I'm mean so precious.

She had a bunch of eggs just not the prize egg

Wow so hard to get a one year old to look at the camera

See what I mean

I love my baby!!!

ONE YEAR SUMMARY

Want to reminisce with Me?

One week from today Kylah will be ONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow! I'm definitely having mixed feelings about it. Excited to see her grow and develop her own personality. On the other hand the obvious does bother me.......she IS growing and growing up!

Some of my favorite moments over the past year.

April -Our baby was born on the 9th. A very special day. Kylah was born a year to the day my Uncle Doug passed. No I don't think it was coincidence that she tried to come a few weeks early then decided to stay....Then I had a scheduled delivery date on the 10th....No I don't believe it was coincidence that she came a day early. She was meant to come on THAT day. I hope it makes that day a little easier. If possible.

May- Several exciting things happened this month. Michael graduated college.Kylah met her cousin Addie Pickel, and It was my First Mother's Day!!!!

June -It was Mike's First Father's Day!!! KK's 4th b-day

July- KYLAH STARTED ROLLING OVER, and celebrated her first July 4th.

August- We had a surprise Birthday party for Aunt Susan. We had a family trip to the famous "BIG ROCK".

September- Kylah helped us celebrate our 2nd anniversary.We got Kylah's ears pierced.She also got her first pair of high heels ( thanks to DD). Loved starting real food.

October-WOW she was 6 months then. Went trick or treating with all the family. She also started crawling this month....oh the days.

November-Kylah's first Thanksgiving. She said her first word...DADA. Kylah saw Santa for the first time....which she hated...Easter Bunny is coming soon we will see what she does?

December- One of my favorite months. This started a really fun age. Kylah had her first Christmas.

January- Kylah was trooper for New Years....didn't stay up the whole night but hey. She also got her first two teeth on the way to Nashville. She became a talker more this month too! Took some steps this month.

February-Kylah had her first Valintine...J-Money.She started walking this month....everywhere!!!!

March-She became obsessed with Sesame Street. Unfortunately she got sick for the first time. Finally warmer weather ...play time!

April - So far she has developed into the amazing little girl. She is HAPPY!!!!! That is one thing that you could always say about Kylah...She has been the best, Happiest, perfect ANGEL EVER!!! I can't wait for her Birthday party Sunday.

THANKS FOR READING THIS VERY LONG BLOG FROM A PROUD, SAD, EXCITED, AND VERY VERY THANKFUL MOTHER! It helped me look back at an amazing year the God has blessed us with.

Prayer Reguest

Today I ask that you pray for the Stout family. I pray that God will give them strength and surround them with love and support. Please keep them in your prayers during this week.

My baby is sick

Kylah started running a fever Saturday in the middle of the night. Sunday same thing a little cough no runny nose. By Sunday night still fever and more coughing. I decided to take her to the Dr. Monday. Well, she is now on her first round of anti-biotic. She has the croup and left ear infection. Dr. said we caught really early and she might get worse...well not worse but sound worse in the next couple days. Please pray that she starts feeling better soon. It is so sad she will be walking and just sway to the side and fall. She is a trooper though not terribly fussy. She still only weighs 19 Pounds! I hope she gets to 20 by her birthday so we can turn her car seat around!!

This was so sad. Mindy brought by stuff for Kylah's b-day party today and left KK in the car... well I guess she couldn't stand it and came to the window to see Kylah! Kylah wanted her and Mindy so bad. I can't wait till she feels better b/c it broke my heart.

Almost Birthday Time!

I took Kylah to have her 12 month b-day pics on friday. This friday was much better than last week! Man its the simple things in life that make Mommy Hood easier. Like the Food City across from West Town mall has these cool buggies! If my Food City or Kroger has these have missed them. They have the car part up front not on the bottom !! Seriously considering shopping out there b/c of this feature. Or b/c of the train that runs throughout the store above your head, which Kylah loved as well!!!

Mindy and KK at Mr. Gatti"s
Kylah enjoyed herself too!

KK riding by herself. If you click the picture you can really see her hairdo!!! She said it was curly?!?!?!

What is this stuff?!?!?!

Last weekend was so nice I decided to take Kylah out and let her play before dinner. She kept looking down at the grass like"what is on my feet"?

One of my new favorites!

Seriously how nice is it not to have to deal with blankets and bulky clothes!! It was nice to have to tighten her car seat straps! Can't wait for consistent warm weather!!!

This is Jacob carrying the plaque for winning the Regional Tournament. Go Jacob!!! He has had a great season!

Somehow I caught this picture of Landon giving Kylah a kiss. How sweet is that!


Dresses in our red and blue of course

KK wanted me to take a crazy picture of her!

Addie and her pig tails! How cute!
